Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced & Dependable Pet Care
I treat your home and pet with the same respect and care I would my own—punctual, dependable, and detail-oriented. I don’t do one-size-fits-all care—every pet gets routines tailored to their personality, energy level, and needs.

Ratings and reviews
Maria was great with our puppy, Mia! We are so grateful she took such good care of our girl.
This was our first shot with Rover, and we came in with a lot of questions and anxieties. We knew we made the right call when our 5-month old golden became comfortable with Maria at first sight. Maria was very warm, sent regular updates on our puppy, and came with a lot of good experience and tips - having had a golden retriever herself while growing up. We’re definitely going to repeat very soon. Thank you, Maria!! 🥰🐶
Very responsive and took great care of our puppy! We didn’t have to worry all day
Rebeca has always been incredible with animals. I have watched her care for many different animals, and she has cared for mine herself. She is diligent, responsible, and gentle. I can’t recommend a better person to be a pet caregiver.
Rebeca was amazing with my little boy and he fully enjoyed his time receiving so much attention from her and her roommates. I couldn’t asked for a better sitter for my Milo
Rebeca was absolutely amazing with my pet! She was incredibly attentive, responsible, and kept me updated the whole time. You can tell she genuinely loves animals, and my pet was so relaxed and happy with her. I couldn’t recommend her enough—10/10!

Schedule
My daily routine is very structured, which allows me to consistently prioritize pet care. I plan my day around walks, feedings, and check-ins to make sure each pet gets the time and attention they need. I’m flexible and able to adjust my schedule to match your pet’s routine, whether that’s early mornings, midday visits, or evening care.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I care for pets in both my home and my clients’ homes by keeping their routines as consistent as possible. I follow all feeding schedules, walking routines, and any specific instructions to make sure they feel comfortable and secure. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise, while also respecting their boundaries and personalities. In my clients’ homes, I’m very mindful, keeping the space clean and leaving everything exactly as I found it. My goal is to create a safe, stress-free environment wherever they are.
A typical day
I love keeping pets active, engaged, and happy! We’ll go on fun walks, play games like fetch or tug-of-war, and enjoy cuddle time if they like affection. I also include enrichment activities like puzzle toys or basic training games to keep their minds stimulated. Every activity is tailored to your pet’s personality, energy level, and routine so they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away.

- It’s really helpful for me to know your pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs ahead of time. Please share details like feeding schedule, exercise preferences, medical conditions, medications, allergies, and any behavioral quirks (such as anxiety, aggression, or triggers). I also like to know how they interact with other pets and people, their favorite activities, and anything that helps them feel comfortable and safe. The more I know, the better I can provide personalized, loving care!
